Featuring Keyless Locks From The Following Brands:
About the various types of keyless door locks available:
Keyless Electronic Deadbolts
Electronic deadbolts are battery powered keyless locks. These deadbolts are generally used with a door lever or knob below that does not lock. This way the door knob or lever will open and close the door, but the keyless deadbolt will control who can have access to entry. Electronic deadbolts allow multiple key codes and generally have a backlit keypad for easy access in the dark. Keyless deadbolts also have a keyed cylinder so that you have the option to lock or unlock with a key if you wish. Some of our more popular keyless locks are made by Schlage, Kwikset, Weiser and Emtek.
Keyless Electronic Levers or Knobs
Electronic or keyless levers and knobs are battery powered keyless locks. If your door only has one bore hole where a knob would go, this is the best option for a keyless lock. A keyless lever or knob controls who has access to entry by requiring a code to unlock. Electronic kevers or knobs allow multiple codes and generally have a backlit keypad for easy access in the dark. Keyless levers or knobs also have a keyed cylinder so that you have the option to lock or unlock with a key if you wish.
Keyless Electronic Handlesets
Electronic or keyless handlesets have a larger decorative handle below used to open and close the door, and an electronic/keyless deadbolt above that locks the door and controls entry. Keyless handlesets allow multiple codes for different users and also have a backlit keypad for easy access at night. This is a great solution when you want a more decorative handleset on your front door, but want a keyless lock. Keyless handlesets also have keyed cylinders so you can lock or unlock with a key if you wish.
Keyless Mechanical Locks
Keyless Mechanical Locks do not require batteries for operation. The disadvantage for most mechanical locks is that the lock needs to be uninstalled to change the access codes. However, the advantage is a simple mechanical design where you don't have to worry about the batteries dying and not allowing access to the user. Mechanical Locks from Lockey and Lockstate are popular styles that we carry.
Keyless Resort Locks
Resort Locks are a common type of keyless lock used on vacation homes, condos, offices or any application where someone would want to allow access to a building for a predetermined amount of time. For example if you had a vacation home and wanted to allow a friend to stay from 3 p.m. August 1st to 10 a.m. August 15th, you could generate an access code for him using your resort lock software. Your friend would use the code to gain access after 3 p.m. August 1st and once the predetermined date and time has passed, your friend will no longer be able to access the home.
